First of all, please add the "gentbi" driver to your kernel (it's a PHY
driver; I guess I've forgotten to add it to GENERIC).
Secondly, I had a GA621 for a while, and was not able to get it
working. I no longer have access to that hardware.
I would very much appreciate if you could try and track down the
problem.
